hypochondriac

I don't think a transgender category would have enough people to make it worthwhile. They can still compete just with their biological sex.

There's very clearly an element of social contagion and a desire to be different and special (similar to goths, grunge etc) for some of these children along with trauma as you say and the evidence suggests a greater likelihood to identify like this if you have autism (probably because they see things in a more black and white way.) Whatever someone thinks of the issue, it's clearly the right thing to do to prevent any sort of permanent transition or harm with things like puberty blockers until they are adult and can do what they like to their bodies within reason.

Agree with that. I see that the NHS are also going to test for autism in all those young people who say they are transgender which is a great idea too.

No transgender people are excluded from sport. Like everyone else they are restricted to playing sport with members of their own sex.

Firstly that's not what the evidence from the Tavistock showed which was a big reason why it was scrapped. There's a growing number of detransitioners speaking out to say that they were on a medical pathway that they bitterly regret and which has left them with irreversible damage. For those who are anorexic and believe they are fat, perhaps we should listen to them and respect their decision to starve themselves. Who are you to tell women that they aren't at risk from biological males in their spaces? All the evidence suggests that so called trans women are no less a risk to women than other biological men with some evidence to suggest that the risk they present is actually higher. What you now have is the cultural norm that women's spaces are for biological women only. Absolutely no one has said that all people who call themselves trans are al rapists, simply that biological men present some sort of risk to women because women cannot tell which ones are the bad ones. Making it socially and legally unacceptable for biological men to use women's loos will provide some greater measure of safety for all women.

Another clear example of antisemitism:

We aren't a Spors team.

That's sad Colbury was a right laugh. I think he had something to do with saintsfun and b-anter. Was the bloke from Liverpool the Don or something like that with the godfather picture?

I went on the coach to the Derby playoffs with badboysaint being an absolute bellend the whole time. Got terrorised by an old bloke from memory. Wasn't it b rabbit? Some notable posters to remember include Roger beeks who was the police I think, Colbury, saf and redandwhitepanda.

If this data is accurate - I'd need confirmation- then that's staggering

I'd bet you a substantial amount that we will sign a lot of players.

I didn't say that I wanted Sargent, simply that I'd be happy if we did decide to go for him. I think he's a decent striker who has some attributes such as strength and power that we lack in our squad and I'd say we definitely need a bit of a refresh in the squad to give us a winning mentality. I'd probably get rid of Onuachu and the crock from Sunderland and he can be their replacement. Then we can keep Armstrong and possibly Archer and have a stronger squad overall.

OK well that's a different conversation. I'm not sure I agree with you though, he's at least comparable to Adams who we haven't replaced. I'd get as many top championship players as we can afford and then if we get promotion get ruthless and bin the majority or at least relegate then to squad players. We probably need a couple of strikers next year and I'd be happy for Sargent to be one of them.

Are you expecting us to sign premier league players on the championship? Our problem last year was not who we recruited, it was that when we went up we didn't bin three quarters of the team.

I'd be alright with keeping Stephens in the squad and then binning him once we get promotion. Quite a few of these players will be more than good enough for the championship just not good enough for the league above and that's fine.

He's the opposite of what we need in my opinion. Still is the kind of manager you want when you're mid table in the Championship and need some new ideas to give you a charge up the table.

He still doesn't understand!!! 😝

My desire to not have women deprived of sporting opportunities due to men is what shone through.

Oh thank Christ (literally!) if we don't get one from Prince Charles though can I worry that he's a secret satanist?

You've got no idea what my opinion on women's safety is because you have nothing to base it on other than your own bigotry and bias. As I recall you spent a significant amount of time trying to persuade me that a biological man is in fact a woman if they say they are so I can't imagine you're overly thrilled at this turn of events.

*Here is what I believe. *No you don't believe that, you believe this. *I'm telling you I don't believe that. *You say you don't believe that but when you say you don't I know what you really mean is that you do. *Seriously I've told you what I believe. *that's not convincing enough.

Ah yes the incredibly neutral and totally unbiased poster on a mongboard speaks! Couldn't possibly fathom that someone could have empathy and care about groups of people outside of themselves. You should try it some time.

I'm not sure what you'd be basing that on given that I've never given my opinion on female prisoners or prisoners generally beyond suggesting I could possibly support the death penalty for incidents like Southport.

Semenya has a deficiency that only affects males. He was likely born with an underdeveloped penis that can sometimes resemble a vagina but it cannpt biogically be one.

You're doing that thing again where I tell you what I believe and then you tell me what I actually believe based on the image you have of me in your head. If you won't accept what I'm telling you my views are then you'd be better off not engaging.
